Any Cross-Browser Methods For Detecting DOM Changes?
May 20, 2009I do know about 'DOMSubtreeModified' which works in FF but not IE. Is there any possible solutions that could work for any browser?

View 4 RepliesIs there any way to resize an iframe dynamically to the height of its content that works cross browser and works when the iframe content is on another domain than the main page (I have access to both pages, so code can be put in either) Also, it must resize when links in the iframe are clicked (ie when a new page within the iframe is loaded)

I'm trying to detect the browser in that little box but It's not working. in between the <div> tags I have this code
<script type="javascript">
var browser=navigator.appName
var browser_version=navigator.appVersion
var version=parseFloat(browser_version)
document.write("Detecting Browser..." + browser)
</script>I don't even think I'm going to user the browser version so don't worry about that but I can't get this to work. I think I have it right, I was looking at the tutorial on w3schools. Can anyone see a problem? Am I leaving something out?
Edit: oh, very sorry. It seems my tiny little mistake is that script type should be "text/javascript". But now that that is figured out It shows that I'm using Netscape when I'm actually using Firefox 0.o
I'm curious if it is possible to detect the browsers default font and
size? Most of the posts on this topic predate Windows XP, IE 5.5,
Mozilla Firefox, et al.
I've searched up and down the DOM properties, looped through most
objects and collections alerting properties and values, and I can't
find anything. This leads me to believe it is not possible to detect
the browsers default font settings.
I have a jquery-powered "start page" that checks your log in and if successfull it slides in a "menu" of new places to go. The problem is, if you click back from one of the new places, the original "start page" looks as if you never logged in. You have to reload the page. Not very intuitive and this website is for kids. Now I've tried setting form field values with server session variables, javascript variables, etc etc but they all get reset when you click back. I've tried the "onunload hack" which I don't fully understand, and then read a bit about the onhashchange event which is from what I gather only compatible with HTML5 browsers...is there no way to detect if the user is already logged in when they click the back button or am I not doing enough homework?

{
if (window.event.clientX < 0 && window.event.clientY < 0)

alert("Window is closing...");

I get window.event undefined by using
var evt =window.event? event : e I get e undefined
var evt =window.event? event : e
if (evt.clientX < 0 && evt.clientY < 0){
alert(evt.clientX +"Window is closing...");
}
I would like to set up a listener, I think, that will exectuve a bit of code when my primary browser window receives focus.
For example, I will open a new _blank window, but when that window is closed, I would like some code to exectuve. What is the proceedure to do this?
I'm trying to figure out if it's possible to detect if a browser supports a specific URI scheme with javascript. So far the only close-but-wont-cut-it solution seems to be looping through navigator.plugins and check for plugins known to support these schemes, but that wont cut it (not maintainable, lacks perenity and have not found such a list). I have HTML anchor tags which use the geo [URL] and tel [URL] uri schemes. These are recognized by the iphone web browser (at least, tel I'm sure of) but not by the more general browsers.
If I click on any of these links in an nonsupporting browser of course, I get a nice browser alert box telling me the scheme isn't supported. But you cant trap that with javascript. I've tried fiddling around with window.navigator and even tried some iframe embedding magic to see if this would work, no success yet. What I want to do is detect I the scheme is supported and if not, prevent the links from a) appearing as links and b) be clickable. So far, I've been able to hack something out of firefox with this:
Code JavaScript:
(function(){
var schemes = ['aaa', 'aaas', 'acap', 'cap', 'cid',
'crid', 'data', 'dav', 'dict', 'dns', 'fax',
'file', 'ftp', 'go', 'gopher', 'h323', 'http',
'https', 'icap', 'im', 'imap', 'info', 'ipp',
'iris', 'iris.beep', 'iris.xpc', 'iris.xpcs', 'iris.lws', 'ldap',
'mailto', 'mid', 'modem', 'msrp', 'msrps', 'mtqp', .....

I would like to determine if the users browser is set to English, French, Italian or German language and display a message in the appropriate language but don't want to redirect user.
I want to find x, y location of a layer or an image, or any other item
on a webpage.
1. It could be relatively or absolutely positioned.
2. It does not matter what browser the user is using.
what's the correct javascript code?
example: find x, y location of the image "someImage"
<html>
<body>
......... some html here....
<img src="someImage.gif" id="someImage" />
......... some html here....
<body>
</html>
After 1.5 years of writting my website I installed NS. It's JS works alot different to IE's, so it looks like I've got to write most of my site again!! [img]images/smilies/frown.gif[/img]
NS will only read 1 external JS file, which is abit of a nuisance as my site has a JS file common to site, another for the subfolders of the site, and the page's JS included with the HTML.
I'm trying to put all of common functions into one JS, but some of the functions have large amounts of text assigned to them. I'm trying to import the text using XML sheets as needed, but having a bit of a problem with the line
Code:
xmlDoc.childNodes[i].childNodes[2]
where NS will only read 1 array of childNodes. How do extract xml with NS's JS?
If my audience uses not so old browsers, do I have to use cross browser DOM? If they have IE 5 or later and Netscape 6 or Mozilla 1.0 or later and any version of Opera that is not older than 6 months?

In some pages of my website I use a code like the following:
for (var n = 0; n < getTagsArray("SPAN").length; n++){
//SPAN is just an example. I also use other tags
tag = getTagsArray("SPAN")[n];
//make something with tag...
}
function getTagsArray(Tag){
if(document.all){ //Internet Explorer
return document.all.tags(Tag);
}
else if (document.layers){ //Netscape
eval("return document.tags." + Tag);
}}
I want to put all browser-specific code inside the getTagsArray
function. So far, I've programmed only for Internet Explorer (my
browser), but now I want to make my website visible to all browsers.
I'm not sure about the getTagsArray function. Is it right or is there
a better way to do the same thing? And how can I extend that function
to make it work in other browsers?
Finally, where can I find some information about cross-browser
programming? I have the javascript reference for Internet Explorer and
Netscape, but I know nothing about other browsers.
a lot of the code I have trouble with is events-based, although there are some DOM-navigation problems that I've noticed in IE.
before I launch into a probably fruitless attempt to write an API that corrects IE's DOM-mangling, I'm wondering if someone else may have already invented that particular wheel.
ideally, this would be a script which I simply link to in the head, and then write valid DOM code which automagically works.
onclick="getElementById(Ǝ').style.display='inline'" title="Show Comments">show</a> / <a href="#" onclick="getElementById(Ǝ').style.display='none'" title="Hide Comments">hide</a>
This is a snippet of code from my HTML, and it has been giving me a lot of trouble. It works in IE6 and FireFox, but not in Opera and I can't test other browsers.
What I'm looking to do is make this as cross-browser friendly as possible, which I'm guessing might be able to be done by the way of javascript functions.
The only problem is I don't know any javascript, this is all I know and a quick solution is all I'm looking for.
So maybe, firstly it would be best to ask if it is even possible to achieve this show/hide effect on all browsers, and if not, what options I have?
I need a free cross browser dhtml tab control.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI am building a webpage that loads information from an XML file. I am using XMLHTTPrequests.
On page load a function populateH(); is called which reads the XML file and populates the HTML(Home) page accordingly. The function uses getData() functions to read and write from the XML file.
The page works properly in FireFox, but the populateH() function doesn't seem to work with other browsers. I have tested my getData() functions in other browsers and it seems to work fine.
(example available at: [url]
My get data function is written as follows:
Code:
And my populateH() function is written as follows:
Code:
I use the XMLHttpRequestObject in the populateH() function to set the nodes to retrieve, and the getData() functions are called in the place functions (placeNews(), placeFriends(), placeLinks()) to write to the HTML document.
I have a website[URL]... that has a car search box functionality which uses an external javascript file to populate the makes and models within the dropdown boxes.
A few weeks ago I realised that it didn't work in safari (initilly I had the populate onload code attached to the submit image), I then moved the code into a inline script tag and it worked but now i've realised it doesn't work in Firefox... I am now thinking of adding a script to determine the browser and dynamically work on adding the populate code depending on the browser but thought it would be a good idea to post on here in case there is an overall much better solution. If you visit the site you will see a working example of the issue.
I'm trying to find a javascript/DOM navigation tree to use in a
web-based content management system, to allow navigation of > 10,000
folders/files.
The javascript (non-DOM) tree we currently use is running too slowly
as it cannot dynamically load in nodes when users select a node to
expand. This is critical for us. The top level of the tree hirarchy
only has 20 or so nodes, but each node might contain up to 1,000
nodes.
So what we need is for the tree to process and display the first tier
(20 nodes) and then only process sub-nodes if the expand icon is
clicked.
Does anyone know whether such a tree exists?
It needs to be compatible with all modern browsers (IE 5+, Netscape
6+, Opera 7+, Konqueror 2+, Safari etc). I've looked at several
different examples, but none of them (AFAIK) appear to be fully
compatible with the above list of browsers.
I am brand-new to javascript, but after reading some tutorials online I
was able to make a dynamic HTML photo gallery in javascript. It works
fine in all browsers except IE6 (big surprise). I've been looking
around online for solutions, but the fixes I have seen don't seem to
work. I assume I am misunderstanding something... I was using
element.setAttribute but have changed my code to avoid that. Here is an
example. IE6 displays the link text but doesn't do anything else--exact
same result I had by using element.setAttribute('name', 'value').
I wanted to know if we have some validator tool available which can validate our jsp code for W3C standards and for cross browser compatibility for browsers like IE, Mozilla, Chrome.
